repeat his declaration of opposition
to cancellation by the United 8tates
of the debts owed the country by
f foreign nutions.
4 Two new pronouncements narked
the president s discussion of foreign
. affairs. One touched on reduction
. of world armament and the other
had reference to the outlawing of
.war.
f "It has been and is my eipectation

ferences on this subject hs soon as

ration plan ns the established and

with regard to armament reduction.

iV' Proposals to outlaw aggressive war-
fare the president asserted should
'-ie Carefully studied and sympathet-
f Hcally Viewed.
Comhining discussion of tax revl-
sion with his statement on economy
' the executive said that if congress at
thin session kept within the budget
he had prsenled "it will then be pos-
sible to have a moderate amount of
tax reduction and all the tax reform
that the congress may wish for dur-
ing the next fiscal year." He declared
publication of income tax payments
to be "detrimental to the public wel-
fare and bound to decrease public rev-
enues." and urged the repeal of tbat
section of the revenue act.
Outstanding Suggestions.
' Aside from his declaration relative
to economy and taxation the out-
standing recommendations on domes-
tic affairs made by the president in-
cluded: Knactment of such legislative rem-
edies for agricultural ills as are
worked out by the recently appointed
agricultural commission and exertion
if all efforts "by government activity
and by private agencies to restore
and maintain agriculture to a com-
plete nonir'l relationship with other
industries."

"Ever since I ws a child I had
suffered with stomach and kidney
troubles" Mrs. Barnes continued. "I
hsd no appetite and even the light
foods I ate would make me suffer
violent distress with my stomach. 1
lost weight snd got so weak and
nervous that I could- hardly get
around. And then finally I de-
veloped rheumatism which got so
bad that I waa hardly able to walk.
"Of course I tried many different
medicines and treatments and spent
hundreds of dollars trying to get re-
lief from my suffering but it seemed
like there waan't a thing that would
de me a particle of good. But fin-

Outlook It Encouraging.
Noting that the Constitution pro-
vides that the president shall re-
port to congress on the state of the
Union Mr. Coolidge said "the pres-
ent state of the Union is such that
it may be regarded with encourage-
ment and satisfaction by every Amer-
ican." "Our domestic problems are for the
most part economic" he added. ' "We
have our enormous debt to pay and
we are paying it. We have the high
cost of government to diminish and
we are diminishing it. We have a
heavy burden of taxation to reduce
and we are reducing it."
The nation he said has definitely
relinquished "the old standard of
dealing with other countries by terror
and force and is definitely committed
to the new standard of dealing with
them through friendship and under-
standing." "I shull resist any attempt to re-
sort to the old method and the old
standard" he added "I am especial-
ly solicitous that foreign nations
should comprehend the candor and
sincerity with which we have adopted
this position."

START YOUR LIVER
AilD STOP YOUR COLD
Relief Between Sundown and
Sunup With New Pepsin
and .Calomel Treatment
That Regulates Liver and
Aids Digestion.
The old idea of treating colds was to
merely move the liver and empty the
bowels but newer physiotogicul tests
prove that a cold responds much
quicker if the digestive tract is also
treated and the only treatment of
this kind now available is l'epsinated
Calomel.
Pure calomel is gentle mild and
harmless while impure calomel is
drastic and dangerous. The calomel
in Pepsinated Calomel is that pure
imported English calomel that will
not gripe nauseate or salivate hut
starts the liver to work pleasantly
naturally and mildly while the pepsin
takes care of the undigested food
that lies like a lump in your stomach
thus serving aa a perfect digestant
and eliminant.
Pepsinated Calomel is sold and
gua ranted satisfactory by Court
Bouse Pharmacy and other reliable
druggists.
